I like the way you think! VTNR Bin, indeed! And I’m a lefty saying that. To me, it’s too gimmicky. Every time I see someone wearing it on their left wrist, I cringe. Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Didn't Kat just try on a GMT for the first time. The bezel color scheme of the one she tried is really not relevant. It is the idea of wearing a GMT for real that is the thing.

VTNR is the only one I like and I’m not left handed. Favorite was TT CHNR but after I tried it it was all wrong.

I have to agree, this has been amusing to watch. However, I think the point has been clearly made. Whether or not it’s been taken is another thing.
Cool to see that the GRNR is being exhibited more and more and that’s it seems to be more impressive in person than in pictures. I think that’s true for many Rolex watches IMO. |

Well... anyone that thinks that A) Someone can't change their mind and B) an opinion won't change seeing something in person hasn't been into Rolex's long enough. This also goes the other way, ie, liking a watch then deciding you don't after you see it.
I used to think (over the past 20 years) that a Solid Gold Sub was just awful, now I have a complete different opinion and see how one could fit in my collection 100%. It would be easy to quote my old self saying I hated them though. ;). To all those saying how terrible the GRNR, if your AD called you and said it was your lucky day and you could pick one up, would you? Or would you say no and reserve it for someone who really loves it? I think I already know the answer... ![]() |

I only called Kat out because as people/owners of the GRNR were posting pics of their new acquisitions, coming out with a blatant opinion such as she did is just not nice. We all have opinions of watches, for god sakes, it’s a watch forum. But there is a decent way of saying it. Again, I reiterate, we all have opinions, it’s too big, it too flashy, gaudy, small, dainty, wimpy whatever…..but “just ugly” as we are all posting pics……not cool. That’s it.

Finally Got to Try on a GMT!

I could not agree more, as I do recognize THAT quote. Still stands, and my other partial quote being referenced “here” has been taken WAY out of context, (it was not in anyone’s incoming thread, but rather a direct comparison between two color ways, where the thread starter was asking if he should give up his BLNR on Jubilee for the new GRNR) just so that a few people could have some fun bashing another member. I’m rather used to it. Happens a lot, but I don’t let it get me down. Kat |

That was Exactly the point of my thread. I finally got to experience a Rolex GMT. The color was not the main point. Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

There’s some Reddit level pettiness going on right now. I left that place because it’s toxic. Don’t bring that here please

No, just watches. I like nice leather Coach bags and wallets, from the outlet mall, but will use the same one, daily, until it looks shabby. Birkenstocks for shoes., or Nike Addis, or Converse sneakers. do own a Tiffany peace sign necklace. ![]() Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I thought this watch was going to be a possible add, however, the more pics I see, I don't think so. Especially if the price continues to hover around 20k. I mean, if it was @ msrp, it would be a maybe at best. At 20k? Good lord, no.
But IRL, it could be a different story, who knows. |

This watch won’t be trading for 20K for long. That’s the new model bump. Give it a few months. |
